Summary:
A new study shows how walnuts may improve sperm quality in healthy men. Eating 2.5 ounces of walnuts a day for twelve weeks improve sperm quality in healthy men. The study had 117 men aged 21 to 35 who had a western diet, half of the the guys were told to continue their normal diet. The other half were told to eat at least 2.5 ounces of walnuts a day at anytime during the day.
Walnuts have omega 3 fatty acids which have been proven to increase fertility. Fish oil as well improves maturation ands proved membrane function of sperm. At the end of the study sperm quality only improved with the men who ate the walnuts. When the doctors looked at …show more content…
the sample not knowing who ate the walnuts and who didn't the scientist realized the the walnut eaters had bigger, faster and stronger sperm.
Opinion:
I thought the research was done very well and put very well together. These days no one eats healthy and so I don't really se this impacting that many people. Plus who likes walnuts, the only people willing to eat walnuts and healthy 24/7 are people who have problems with fertility.
I think this article could have been put better together better with more details. Like explained what the western diet is. I liked how they listed several ways how the men ate the walnuts and they said the results were consistent meaning walnuts plain didn't have any different effect then them mixed with applesauce or meats.

Summary:
A new survey reveals normal level of hormone considered vital to a women's fertility. Scientist are working on trying to pin point accurately how long a women is fertile. The findings are suppose to tell a women when exactly they will hit menopause and if it is going to be early or later. The survey showed that AMH hormones reflect the activity of the ovaries during a women's lifetime and gives the estimate of the amount of egg supply.
IVF is also less successful if the hormone AMH hormone falls. Finding these new outcomes could give more accurate prediction of an IVF outcome. Watching the AMH hormone is now allowing levels of IVF problems to be treated. Right now there is no test that accurately tells how many immature eggs remain inside an immature women or girl.
Opinion:
This article was dry and boring. I understand that this could be a big step in fertility and IVF problems being solved. This article is from last year and I have heard that they have had some improvement on tracking the AMH hormone. If this is true women and girls all over will be able to know how long they can weight to have a child before hitting menopause.
I would never have read this article if I didn't procrastinate until the last day to do all ten articles. This was the most confusing article it would have been better if they just went straight to the point rather than going on and on about stuff that wasn't consistent on AMH hormone and how it will be able to predict women fertility. My opinion is that this is the worst article ever.

Summary:
The article talks about natural birth controls. The study starts off by explaining birth control . No form of birth control is 100 percent and none offer 100 percent protection from STDsexcept abstinence. All birth control is to either prevent a man's sperm from reaching and entering a women's egg and preventing a fertilized egg from implanting into the uterus.
Natural birth control are considered natural because they are not mechanical or not a result of a hormone manipulation. A form of birth control is tracking their ovulating cycle, knowing when the girl is going to ovulate allows the man and the women to know when she is ovulating so then the man knows when to take precautions and not have sex. This is 98 percent accurate and healthy for both the man and women.
Opinion:
This article I believe is more for older women than younger. Young girls are not going to be able to calculate when they are ovulating or be responsible enough to go through with it. Older women who are more responsible I believe should use the natural use of birth control by counting days and marking when the women is going to ovulate.
This is even made easier today through technology. Cell phones and computers now have multiple programs that allow women to track their menstrual cycle and ovulating schedule. This does allow women to track their cycle in a healthier way. Birth control is easier this sums up my opinion on the article.

Summary:
This study shows that women who are birth control don't use condoms as well. The study also states that women who don't use them while on birth control will not use them ever again. The study had 1,194 young sexually active women aged 15-24 who started some form of birth control. The researchers asked the women their opinion on condom use and their parents opinion.
At the beginning of the study 36 percent used condoms consistently, 27 by three months later stopped using them. Through the year of study half stopped using birth control and still didn't use condoms. With both birth control and condoms the girl and guy are protected from sexually transmitted diseases and pregnancy. Most of the time not wanting to use both birth control and condoms is the guy pushing and peer pressuring the girl not to use them.
Opinion:
I agree with this article many girls who are on birth control don't use condos as well. Many of my friends who are whores and just sleep with any man with a dick don't use condoms and half aren't on birth control. Girls say "it won't happen to me" and then they end up missing a period or thinking they have something....FAIL.
This article didn't really introduce anything knew it just put facts to what I already knew. I am glad that someone finally did something to prove that girls just go with guys ideas. They say hey you don't need a condom and the girl is like well ok and then someone gets pregnant or better yet somebody gets and STD.

Summary:
Providing birth control to women at no cost reduced unplanned pregnancy and cut abortion rates in half. About 50 percent of pregnancies per year are unplanned. This rate is way higher than other developing countries. Their were 9,256 women in St. Louis aged 14-45 years of age at risk of unintended pregnancy and willing to start a new contraceptive method. They all chose their own choice of birth control.
Abortion and pregnancies dropped more than half the next two years. Young women 15 to 19 said that free birth control will allow teen pregnancy to drop. This study showed that they were correct teen pregnancy dropped to 17 per 1000 teens. The hardest part the contestants said was remembering to take the pill if they chose that form. Results agree that the women who chose birth control had no unexpected pregnancies.
Opinion:
Obviously is birth control was cheaper more girls would be on it this is just stupid and pointless. Why would pregnancy rate not go down more people on birth control less pregnancies. This article wasn't interesting it was more of common sense wrote down and tested.
The test although was not very substantial they did this I'm one area and the results could have been contaminated. Plus who really remembers to take their pills everyday the n,y reason why people remember today is because of apps and cell alarms.

Summary:
According to recent studies the tendency to fall asleep first after sex is associated with greater partner desire to bonding and affection.456 participants did online surveys assessing experience, desire, with their partner after sex. The study also looked at who falls asleep first men or women.
Falling asleep before their partner may be a non conscious way to foreclose on any commitment conversations after sex.
They found that women were more likely to fall asleep first when not engaging sexual activities and men stayed up longer trying to get their partner to go again or engage I'm sexual activity. Men and women were equally cuddly with each other.
Opinion:
I thought for sure that men would fall asleep before the women and won't want to cuddle. This article contradicts what we learned in class and so now I am confused. I have to agree with Cass because I think this research was not completed well and could be biased or fake. It was done with the Internet meaning people could be lying and no one would know.
I think this study was done by immature researchers who does a survey online for this type of research. How did this article even make it into Science Dailey it isn't that good when it comes down to what they used for research. My science teachers have always told me that this website is the best place for news and research articles I am kinda taken back by the way this article was presented.

Summary:
There has been new insight into swimming skills of sperm that open doors to male fertility. This is leading to the new development of the male birth control pill. Motility is the basic need for fertilization. If sperm can't move then they can't reach they egg. The vagina is so acidic that if the sperm can't swim they will just instantly be killed off.
This means they will mot be able to reach they egg meaning no pregnancy. The pill is going to make the sperm mutate into sperm that do not have tails so they can't swim. The pill will also decrease sperm count allowing less sperm to even be ejaculated. Changing the DNA to the sperm will change s,ash mutate the sperm so it can not move.
Opinion:
Yayyyyyyyy..... I think they should come out with this like soon. Then they should make every guy engaging in sexual activity be on the pill. This would lower unwanted pregnancy rates and allow men to see how it feels to have to take or remember to take a pill just to lease the other partner and protect t themselves.
Unload the gun this would be more practical instead of trying to protect the target. If only they came out with way sooner I am pretty sure every women would be thankful and force their partners to be on it. I mean the girl and guy should be taking it to be fully sure that pregnancy does not happen, but condoms would still be necessary.

Summary: scientists are working on ,ice trying to figure out a way to stop sperm from reaching the female egg. For once this is for guys not women, these scientists are trying to get a male birth control figured out and on the market as soon as possible. They state that they have got the sperm reduced they are just working on stoping it completely.
The JQ1 was found in helping cancer and now is helping with fertility. They have to do more breaking down and compound to make sure iris healthy. More testing is going to be done before even thinking about testing it with humans. The scientist say they believe their will be few to none side effects of the male pill.
Opinion:
I think it is good as long as their is no side effects. So far it has been tested on rats and they have seen no problems I say give it to the men. What nice is it is birth control that is dealing with hormones and this is a non hormonal way. 70 percent of men said if their was birth control for them they would take it.
It use to always be the responsibility of the female but now this gives them options other the the condom which usually the girl supplies anyways. I actually was watching the news while reading the article and I just want to say even though it is off topic, what the hell is going on with child trafficking in Utica. Anyways ya male birth control sounds good to me.
